On the parking front, there is a mighty friendly "farmer" just down the road that might allow an over flow or two (just be ready to have your ear talked off
As far as the location, can we use the sign in log to direct each other. First arrivals check the log and claim which ever is available. My wife and I scoped all three last September, 9 is the best bet (of the scouts haven't claimed it), then 10 (might get windy but great view, should hold us,) then worst case 8 (tight spaces with lots of saplings but doable).

Why don't we shoot for 10 and see what happens. Leave a note at the trail head if plans change.

I posted on BCUSA in their planning thread. Letting them know about the parking situation, and that we are looking at site 10. It looks like they already have people there, or at least very close. Site 9 is pretty much claimed by them already.

Since I will be there the whole weekend, if parking is an issue, park your car, get your gear to the site, and I will walk back out to shuttle people. I could use the exercise anyway.

I'm in for Site 9. I'll bring the pie irons, pizza filling, and the pie filling just like last year. Possibly some scrapple too, if we don't eat it all at Mount Rogers

I'll come in Friday night, after work. It's about an hour for me, so probably around 7:00. Since it's an easy walk, I don't mind carrying some extra stuff at night.

Last year, we had a good enough snow overnight that the pizza sauce bottles we left near the fire to keep thawed got covered in snow. Someone stepped on one and it burst. I though someone sacrificed a squirrel.

My pulk is done, so here's hoping for some snow!

Semper Fi USMCStang, I am thinking about coming, but I need more information to meet you wherever you will be. I can leave later today, a 4 1/2 hour drive, but your plans seem iffy to me too. Please post comprehensive list of decisions if possible.
